The solution is to comment this line
//#include <X11/extensions/shmstr.h>
and put
#include <X11/extensions/shmproto.h>

in capture.c

[Jonathan Andrews]

Could configure not pick this up. Something along the lines of ...

if [ -f /usr/include/X11/extensions/shmproto ]; then
REDHATSHM="REDHATSHM"
fi

gcc BLA BLA -D $REDHATSHM

code

#ifdef REDHATSHM
#include <X11/extensions/shmproto.h>
#else
#include <X11/extensions/shmstr.>
#endif
